OP here, it seems my account is blocked from showing up in /news. Or Am I just not finding it? Any mods here that can help?

Huh, is that the case in Italy? In the US your name and date of birth are very much PHI

Yeah, Name and DOB are covered under HIPAA as PHI.

Your friend helped 16 people get a vaccination rather than a different 16 people getting a vaccination. The same number of vaccinations were given out.

Cool project though

Just to be clear here. This sentence is referencing the "codice fiscale" and that it is not [necessarily] medical data.

The "codice fiscale" is a code consisting of letters and numbers. It can e.g. contain the first letter of your name. An example is provided in one of the article's pictures.
